September 22, in Potomaec Park. A cir- cus that will lay before the pubdlic the very latest activities of the air service will be offered, with the ob- Jeot of swelling the Army Rellef So- clety's funds. Admisslon tickets will bo s0ld, and the proceeds will go into the soclety's trewsury, with the ulti- mate beneficlaries being the wives and children of Army officers killed or disabled in the service. About this time all over the country exhibitions and entertainments of a military na- ture, but popularized for the layman, will be held. Tentative plans show that Potomac Park has been yelected because of its accessibility. A flying fleld will be mapped out and reservations made for a ground exhibition. Virtually all the equipment at Boiling will be brought to the fore und, in addition, interesting pla and auxiliaries from other stations will be imported for the occasfon. The committee in charge of the cir- cus follows: Lieut. Lester J. Maitland, fiying; Capt. C. H. Reynolds, traffic and police; Lieut. Couriney Whitney, publicity and program: Lieuts. Lesli Arnold, G.

This means that thousands of miles were covered by the several planes along this route in ery smull number of hours, demon- strating to the public familiar with this highway the possibilities it holds for the future. Accidents continue to be unknown, which should have a tendency to raise the stock of airway travel.
